Hi Tejas, Since GIMP is written in C, it might be not quite easy for you to participate. But then again, Mitch has been known to claim that there is nothing to know about C :) Personally, I think that caring about something a lot is 33% of the job done. Hence if I were you, I'd ask myself, what things in GIMP I want improved or made available. Then I would try to match them to my skills.
